Prettiest Recent Prada Pink Flowerpot Postcard Print Cotton Dress w Asymetrical Hemline

This is a more recent Prada that as made for the shops. It is just gorgeous and one of the prettiest dresses I have seen by the label. They have a knack for making this pretty postcard pieces with pretty prints and then add a twist on the design to make it have that Prada girl feel. The cut is simple but still edgy. The top is cut the skim over the body and the shoulders are capped. There is elastic around the arms and this bit of gathering gives the shoulders just a touch of support so that they sit up and off the shoulder just a touch. It is a very clever detail. The top is gathered in towards the neckline with more elastic there and then it blouses and skims over the bodice. The waist has a very unusual detailing. There is a wide panel of elastic ruching that wraps around from the back and then curves down on an angle on one side only. There is a gap of fabric without the ruching on the other side of the waist. This gives it a bit of a flapper feel and chic quirkiness. The skirt falls from under that. One side is cut longer and at a slight point on that side while the gathered waist side is shorter. The skirt has a pretty fullness to it. The fabric is gorgeous. It is a light cotton that has a touch of crispness to it. The entire surface of the dress is screened with a design depicting pink flowers in pink pots giving it a nod to the post card dresses of the fifties. It is fabulous to see and a definite showstopper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. Excellent condition.
